Exagram
An exagram (Eg) is a unit of mass equal to 10^18 grams, used to measure extremely large quantities of mass.
History/Origin
The exagram is a relatively recent addition to the metric system, introduced to facilitate the measurement of very large masses in scientific and industrial contexts, aligning with the SI prefixes for large units.
Current Use
Exagrams are primarily used in scientific research, astronomy, and large-scale industrial applications to quantify massive amounts of material or celestial bodies.
Earth's Mass
Earth's mass (M_earth) is a unit of mass representing the mass of the Earth, approximately 5.972 × 10^24 kilograms.
History/Origin
The concept of Earth's mass as a unit originated from scientific measurements of Earth's size and gravitational influence, becoming a standard reference in geophysics and astronomy.
Current Use
M_earth is used in scientific contexts to express planetary and astronomical masses, and in some cases, to compare the mass of other celestial bodies relative to Earth.
